Sorry for this person, because Taylor Swift has officially released Red (Taylor's Version), she re-recorded her 2012 hit album, as any real Swift will tell you, this gives Swift’s ex- Boyfriend actor Jack Gyllenhaal caused trouble.
Many songs on Red, including the heartbreaking song "All Too Well", are widely believed to be about Gyllenhaal, and Swift dated her for three months in the fall of 2010. At the time, Gyllenhaal was still a few months away from 30, while Swift was almost 21.
Over the years, Swift teased her for writing a 10-minute version of "All Too Well". With the release of the re-recorded album, she finally gave the song to fans. As expected, the lyrics are cruel, and Swift sings: "I'm never good at telling jokes, but the punch line is / I will get old, but your lover keeps my age," and "But I'm in a new hell Every time you make me upset/You say that if we get closer, maybe we will be okay/It makes me want to die."
Swift recently talked about how the 10-minute version of "All Too Well" became a Red (Taylor's Version) song on The Tonight Show. It was this song that she let fans hear the most.
"I'm going through a sad time," she told Jimmy Fallon to write the song. "I'm in the band rehearsing a tour that I'm about to go out, called the "Say Now" tour. I went to rehearse and I was really frustrated and sad, everyone knows-it was really not fun to be with me that day- —So I started playing the guitar, playing the same four chords over and over again. The band joined a little bit, and I started to improvise what I was experiencing and how I felt. This song continued to build, build, and build intensity, this The song only lasted about 10 to 15 minutes of what we did."
Naturally, in order to finally hear this song, fans did what they do best and thoroughly grilled Gyllenhaal on Twitter. Here are some of the most interesting reactions:
